What it does

Privacy-first AI meeting assistant that transcribes, summarises, and extracts action items - entirely on your device. No meeting bot. No cloud by default. Runs Whisper.cpp locally with GPU acceleration. Free tier with unlimited transcription.

Local-first AI meeting transcription and summaries. Your audio never leaves your machine. No cloud required. Action items, auto-summaries, and TickTick sync.

Clearminutes is the AI meeting assistant that records your call, transcribes every word in real time with on-device Whisper, labels who said what, and writes a clean summary with action items the second you stop. Audio never leaves your machine. No cloud, no bot, no upload. Telemetry is off by default: opt in during onboarding only if you want to help. Even then it's anonymous usage stats, never your audio or transcript. Clearminutes is the local-first AI meeting assistant for people who can't send their calls to someone else's server. Every other tool uploads your audio. Clearminutes runs Whisper transcription and AI summaries locally on your Mac, Windows, or Linux machine. Zero outbound…from clearminutes.app
